bottom line.........use at least 'high temp wheel bearing grease for disc
brakes'.
going up from there, use..............
the various synthetic greases.
I like Prolong myself......
But it's far more about careful workmanship than it is about how great the
grease is, as long as you use basically good stuff.
And if a synthetic like those mentioned  shows sup .........then use that,
but lacking that, you'll be just fine as long as it's a quality brand of
high temp wheel bearing grease.
